I am bambu is a new luxury brand created by Angela Maria Marchetti specialized in knitwear with the purpose to create an environmental sustainable business based on social principles : “I AM BAMBU’ strives to promote the payment of a fair wage to workers and to pay attention to the final client by making healthy, quality products, providing the very best in comfort and style with passion and love.”
She has chosen to use bamboo to create her products, because “bamboo is the most ecological reality among all the new eco-lifestyle products“.
You can read more about her philosophy at Concept page of her website.
I developed the website using WordPress and Thesis theme
The website is bi-lingual : Italian and English and it has also an integrated ecommerce where you can order her products. The ecommerce has been developed using the Shopp plugin.
There are some specific features, like comments synchronization between the Italian and English versions of the website and the detailed computation of the shipping and delivery costs that required some custom programming code.

Roberto, Hello.
I came to know your blog through your Thesis for WordPress articles and videos. Thank you very much for them. I watched your videos, but *alas* they were too advanced for me. Maybe I’ll try to add “hooks” another time.
Anyway, I like your blog, and I like the books you read, so I subscribed to your blog. I want you to know you have a typo on your most recent post: looks like you need to add an “m” to this link: http://www.iambabu.com for http://www.iambambu.com.
Cheers to you, and thanks again for a great blog.

About Thesis hooks, have you tried this plugin ? http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/thesis-openhook/
It should help you to use the Thesis hooks.
